Unused/Missing Languages#

Please elaborate.
Having more detail is always a good thing.
Specifically: Provide more specific details.

The Launcher folder contains data for nine different languages. However, only a small selection are used - the "Midnight Outlaw" version only uses English, while other versions only use Russian, Polish and Portuguese.

Revisional Differences#

The Polish version received a v1.1 patch, providing non-specific compatibility fixes for hardware that had trouble running the original release.

Amusingly, the patch installer does not detect your actual install directory and installs the files to the Program Files (x86)\RPM Tuning PL folder no matter what.

Regional Differences#

This needs some investigation.
Discuss ideas and findings on the talk page.
Specifically: Surely there are others...
